Mine is sitting in a warehouse in Middletown, PA and waiting to be overnighted to me here in Erie, PA (most likely on Thursday). So close, yet so far away! :s lol

Louisville, KY at the moment for mine. Anyone else order the Apple TV? I haven't gotten an email yet about it being shipped, just the iPad.

I considered Apple TV, but I am not sure that I want it just yet. What is the value of having it?

I mainly got it to be able to easily stream from my iPad directly to my TV. Eventually I also want to get back into App development so having a range of devices seems like a logical thing to do. I would have gotten one sooner but I was waiting on 1080.

Both of mine are in Nashville at the moment too. The St. Patrick's Day binge starts on Friday, so I won't be home to crack it open. Oh well, probably shouldn't be playing with it while intoxicated otherwise I probably will literally crack it. :rofl:

Mine's been sitting in Nashville, TN since March 10 for delivery to Indianapolis, IN.

Got my new smart cover last Saturday and my extra power adapter on Monday. Getting the accessories before the device is just killing me. :rofl:

Apple TV finally shipped and is still listed to get here the day after tomorrow.

Mar 14, 2012 4:06 PM Left FedEx origin facility RANCHO CORDOVA, CA

Also, like others, I got my accessories like the cover already. Reminds me of when I was kid. Opened a christmas present which turned out to be Super Mario. I wasn't allowed to open the big box until last.

Just called FedEx. Picking up the TV today. They did overnight to my local FedEx location. Will probably go get it during lunch. UPS still says the iPad is in Kentucky though I imagine today it will be moved to Oklahoma so it can make the long drive tomorrow to my house.

Right, got fed up of not knowing so I phoned TNT and they have confirmed it will be delivered tomorrow! and now its magically shown up on their system...humm. Currently in Nuneaton, Warwickshire.

Now just gotta sit here from 8am until "close of business" tomorrow waiting for it...grr I wish they'd give you some idea of when it'd arrive within the day.

Got a bit antsy at work and took my lunch to pick it up from FedEx. Don't get to turn it on for another 4.5 hours though.

I wonder if I order now, will I get it on Friday? (UK, London)

Not a chance, delivery times are currently 2-3 weeks http://store.apple.c...pad/select_ipad

You would have had to order in the 2/3 days after the announcement to get it on release.

Your only option to get it friday is a nice early start and down to your Apple store for 8AM.

Or possibly mobile carrier shops (O2, Voadfone, Orange T-Mobiel) if you want a "4G" version which is utterly pointless in the UK as we dont have 4G and it won't work with our 4G when we do get it.

I was planning to get the 4G version, because I find the Wi-Fi version pointless :huh: .
